here is the entire code for the image servlet which I seem to be repeatedly getting that NullPointerException java exception. Any ideas what the problem is ? :

                           package coreservlets;

                            import java.io.*;
                            import javax.servlet.*;
                            import javax.servlet.http.*;

public class Image_File extends HttpServlet {
public void doGet( HttpServletRequest rq, HttpServletResponse rp ) throws ServletException, IOException {
       rp.setContentType( "image/jpeg" );

       ServletContext sc = getServletContext ();
       InputStream in = sc.getResourceAsStream("/Sexy_Laundry_Girl!.JPG");

       int r = 0;
       byte[] by = new byte[4096];

       OutputStream os = rp.getOutputStream();
       while( ( r = in.read(by)) != -1) {
            // if (r in= null)
           os.write(by, 0, r);
      }
      os.flush();
      os.close() ;
  }
}

you can always wrap your accesor in a simple try/catch block as in
try
{
Image logo=null;
 logo = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage("images/splash.png");
}
catch(NullPointerException excp)
{
log.debug("NullPointerException thrown while retreiving image 
images/splash.png");
System.out.println("NullPointerException thrown while retrieving 
images/splash.png");
}

Anyone else?

Subject: How do I ........?


I know that this question of mine has been asked/answered in this group, but I was wondering how do I go about checking for a null value? I feel the need to do this in a servlet file that incorporates an image into it.
